Ever need to classify some super fine material? Make your own miniature classifier...
Materials needed : 1 snuffer bottle about 10 pipe screens from your local head shop. Make sure they are big enough to fit over the mouth of your snuffer bottle. After you suck up material with the snuffer bottle, take off the cap and remove the clear plastic pipe, place pipe screens over the mouth of the snuffer bottle and screw the cap back on. The screens should get trapped between the cap and the mouth of the bottle. The more pipe screens you use, the finer the particles you will get. This way, you can classify the supper fine concentrations. Be sure to wash the screens in your pan after removing them from the snuffer bottle so that you don't lose anything that might get trapped between the screens.

Thanks Boogie, cool idea. I've moved this thread on over to the equipment section of the forums, we all love to see/hear about home made stuff.
